We have a collection of NITF files that are missing coordinate system information; they are essentially pixel-based. Elsewhere we have information on the projections used. We are reluctant to modify the original NITF files, but would like to display them through MapServer with the correct projection information. If we provide a world file containing this information for each NITF file, can we associate the two in the mapfile and have MapServer use the world file information instead of fruitlessly pawing through the NITF for it?
Six Degrees, Yes, you should be able to drop a .wld or .nfw file next to the nitf file to provide georeferencing. If that doesn't work for some reason you could provide a similar effect with a VRT file (email me directly for details if needed).
